Tune in Tokyo at the Brooklyn Book Festival

Folks, my book Tune in Tokyo: The Gaijin Diaries was on display at the WNBA table at the Brooklyn Book Festival this past Sunday. No, not the Women's National Basketball Association; I'm talking about the Women's National Book Association, which had the acronym first, bitchez. Anyway, of course I'm a member of the WNBA--after all, I'm a proud black woman. And I'll do pretty much anything to be able to display my book on a table--just ask the shirtless boys playing table tennis at Chelsea Piers.

The bottom line is that I was giving away free bookmarks, which explains why the WNBA table was such a hot property on Sunday.

Or maybe...

See Tim Blog has been linked to on Gothamist, Huffington Post, and, yes, the Raleigh News and Observer. Also! It has been featured in the New York Times City Room Blogtalk page. On top of that, it's listed on the City Room blog roll. Additionally and moreover, the mighty DC gossip blog Wonkette has given STB some of their dirty love twice. That's right, twice. They featured and linked to a story that originated here back in August 2009. (It was an important investigative story about dumb people.) More recently, Wonkette recognized SeeTimBlog's meme-starting capabilities here. Does all this mean nothing to you?
